| Gene Symbol | OTULIN |
| Full Name | OTU Deubiquitinase with Linear Linkage Specificity |
| Chromosome | 5p15.2 |
| Protein Type | Protease |
| Function | Unlike other OTU family members, OTULIN shows exceptional specificity for linear ubiquitin chains and does not efficiently cleave other ubiquitin linkage types. |
| Pathways | NF-κB signaling, NF-κB Signaling, NF-κB |
| Ensembl ID | ENSG00000135547 |

| Alzheimer's Disease | OTULIN regulates tau expression through linear ubiquitin-dependent mechanisms. Dysregulation of OTULIN may contribute to tau pathology in AD. [@ref] |
| Parkinson's Disease | Implicated in PD pathogenesis through regulation of protein quality control pathways |
| Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) | Rare variants may modify ALS risk through effects on proteostasis |
| Immunodeficiency | Loss-of-function mutations cause OTULIN-related immunodeficiency and inflammatory disease |
| Cancer | Altered expression in various cancers, affecting cell proliferation and survival |
